6. Charges and Payments
6.1 Payment Account. Unless you have made other arrangements with ProsperOps, you must authorize and maintain a current valid means for ProsperOps to collect its charges for the Services via payment card or ACH at all times during the Term.
6.2 Billing Cycle. Charges are billed on a monthly basis unless otherwise stated in the Order. Your “billing cycle” begins on your Services activation date and will be aligned to a calendar month boundary the first full month after activation. The savings share charge will be billed in arrears at the beginning of each month for the Services rendered the prior month based on actual usage measured in dollar savings, as defined in the Plan document posted on the ProsperOps Site or in your Order.
6.3 Charges. The charges for the Services are stated in the Plan document posted on the ProsperOps Site or in your Order. ProsperOps may not increase the charges during your initial Order term, but may increase its charges for any renewal term by giving you notice of the increase at least thirty (30) days prior to the first day of your next billing cycle. Charges are billed and must be paid in United States Dollars. You must pay any charges associated with your active Services even if you do not use the Services. The savings share charge for the Services are usage based and will be billed based on usage measured in dollar savings as defined in the Plan document posted on the ProsperOps Site or in your Order.

6.4 Sales Tax. The stated charges do not include any sales, use, VAT or like taxes (“Sales Tax”). You must pay any applicable Sales Tax that is properly invoiced by ProsperOps.
6.5 Invoices. ProsperOps may invoice the charges on or after the following times: (i) for monthly minimums, base charges, and other fixed monthly recurring charges, the first day of each billing cycle, (ii) for usage charges and other variable charges, the last day of each billing cycle, and (iii) for one-time charges (such as pre-paid charges), the day you submit the Order that includes the charge. ProsperOps may invoice any applicable Sales Tax with the invoice for the related Service, or separately. You shall be responsible for all taxes associated with Services other than U.S. taxes based on Our net income.
6.6 Payments. Unless you have made other arrangements, ProsperOps may charge your payment card or account on the date of invoice. ProsperOps may suspend or terminate your Services or the Agreement if its charge to your payment card or account is rejected or not timely paid for any reason. ProsperOps may charge interest on overdue amounts at the lesser of 1.5% per month or the highest non-usurious amount permitted by Applicable Law. If ProsperOps takes legal action to collect an overdue amount, you must also pay ProsperOps’ reasonable costs of collection, such as attorney fees and court costs. If ProsperOps suspends your account for late payment, you may be charged a reasonable reinstatement fee, not to exceed the base charge of your Plan.
6.7 Charges on Termination.
6.7.1 Upon termination of the Agreement or Services, ProsperOps will immediately bill the savings share charge for Services provided month-to-date. The savings share charge encompasses savings generated over the term of a ProsperOps managed and/or deployed Discount Instrument, but is collected monthly as savings are realized. Except as may be modified in the applicable Order, if you terminate Services prior to the term expiration of a ProsperOps managed and/or deployed Discount Instrument, the unrealized savings share charges are due for the lesser of the remaining Discount Instrument term or 12 months (notwithstanding future instance changes that may require additional actions). As such, on termination of the Agreement or Services, ProsperOps will bill you for the unrealized future savings share of each Discount Instrument plan where ProsperOps has provided Service.
6.7.2 If ProsperOps discounts your charges in exchange for your commitment to an Order term length of longer than one month and the Order is terminated prior to the end of the committed term then, unless the termination was by ProsperOps for convenience, or by you for ProsperOps’ uncured breach, you must pay an early termination fee equal to the difference of the standard charge and the discounted charge in addition to the charges set forth in Section 6.7.1.
7. Term, Termination, Suspension
7.1 Term. Unless otherwise stated in your Order, the initial term of each Order begins on Order submission and continues until the end of your first billing cycle. On expiration of the initial term, the Order automatically renews for consecutive renewal terms of one calendar month each (or any longer period described in the Order), unless you cancel or ProsperOps gives a notice of non-renewal before the last day of the initial term or then current renewal term, as applicable.
7.2 Termination.
7.2.1 Subject to Section 6.7, the Services may be cancelled at any time by you via the console and by ProsperOps on notice.

ProsperOps may terminate an Order and the Agreement at any time on written notice if you or your personnel are abusive to ProsperOps personnel.

7.4 Surviving Provisions. The following sections survive expiration or termination of the Agreement: Charges and Payment, Confidentiality, Indemnification, Limitation of Liability, General, Term, Termination and Suspension, Governing Law and Venue, Feedback, Informal Dispute Resolution, Arbitration, Notices, and any other terms that by their nature are intended to survive expiration or termination.

You acknowledge that the use of the Service may not be uninterrupted, error free, or completely secure. If Applicable Law requires ProsperOps to make a warranty notwithstanding this disclaimer, then the warranty is made for a period of thirty (30) days from the date that it is deemed to have been made, and your sole and exclusive remedy for a breach of the warranty is a refund of charges paid for the Services covered by the warranty. You represent that you have not relied on any representation or warranty other than those stated in these Services Terms.
8.4 Indemnification.

IN ADDITION, YOU AGREE THAT IN NO EVENT ARE YOU ENTITLED TO RECOVER ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, OPPORTUNITIES, GOODWILL, OR USE), EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
8.6 General. You acknowledge that ProsperOps has set its charges and entered into the Order in reliance on the limitations of remedies and liability stated in these Terms, and that these limitations reflect an agreed allocation of risk between you and ProsperOps.
